Bicycles and cameras … a perfect fit! Great video … looking forward to seeing more of this content. I carry a Fuji X100V on my bicycle rides using the PS Bagworks Rider Strap. To protect the camera from the elements and sweat on my back, I keep it in a lightweight JJC neoprene camera case pouch. Works great and not too much hassle to remove/fit when it’s time to take a snap. 🚴♂️📷😀
Greetings from the Netherlands, from another cycling photographer. Well, not that fanatic, I only cycle when the weather is nice and max 60km in flat areas. So my last ride was in September and the next one probably will be in April 😆 The M5 is an interesting camera. I might buy one, one day.
How do you store your camera on the bike? I'm always concerned about the vibrations and bumps to the camera on a bike ride, and so I've never tried to take any of my (film) cameras with me when I'm out riding.
I have a camera in my "bike bag" (that's how we call it in Dutch), one of those that you hang on the luggage rack, next the the rear wheel. I put an fleece blanket on the bottom. I guess that will damp the vibrations enough. Never had any problems so far, but I'm curious how other people solve this.
I have a padded insert that I put in my handlebar bag--I'll be showing this in my next video. Cameras are pretty robust, and I've never had a problem from carrying one on the bike.
The meter works perfectly. The camera was CLAed before I bought it, and converted to use modern batteries (it was designed to work with mercury-based batteries that are no longer available). I'll look into the "like" button issue.

If you're having fun riding the bike you're doing it right. Enjoy!
